Charles Vane (c.1680 – 29 March 1721) was an English pirate captain who sailed the West Indies from 1716 until 1719.
He was a friend and fellow pirate companion of Edward Kenway. When Jack Rackham lead a mutiny against the two and destroyed the rudder and masts of the Jackdaw, the two were stranded on an island where Charles went insane. This forced Edward to supposedly kill him and leave him stranded on the island. It is revealed that he actually survived and was taken by another ship after Edward managed to leave, after which he was eventually imprisoned and executed in 1721.
Final words
- Edward: You God damn fucking Knave, Vane!
- Vane: N-nancy boy. Y-you only done half of the fucking job.
- Edward: Fucking Hell. Is this my Reward for believing the best about Men? For thinking that a Bilge Rat like you could muster up some fucking Sense, once in a while. Maybe Hornigold was right. Maybe the World does need Men of Ambition... to stop the likes of you from mucking it all up.
- Vane: Or maybe you just don't have the Stones to live with no regrets.
- Edward: Don't save me a Spot in Hell, Shanker. I ain't coming soon.
